I have to say that was an excellent lesson on traps. Very well spoken, and there is no doubt this gentleman knows of what he speaks. I also appreciate the fact that it was done without inappropriate language.
Thank you for all your videos!! I just moved to northern Michigan and started trapping. I love it!! Your videos are so easy to follow and lots of good tips!! Thank you and keep em coming!!!
That is awesome! Good luck!
One of the best trapping videos I've seen. Thanks.
This channel is a goldmine of information. Tremendous
In Colorado, the tree squirrels are big enough you need to use a 110 magnum. Keeps the size the same as a standard 110, but with a stronger spring.
Great video. I really enjoyed it. I can't wait to see them in action. Thanks again Brother for taking the time to make these high quality videos.
+Neil Currie No problem. Have a good day!
Good information and observations of the differences, pros and cons, of the manufactures of conibears. I have had some of the cheaper 330 conibear traps actually break the welds where the jaws are welded together. I of course rewelded them and all my conibears are now rewelded for strength. I do have time to tinker with such things but I get where your coming from. Thanks for the excellent video.
best trapping video on conibear traps I have seen ,good on you mate.
Thank you sir. I appreciate that!
Thank you for helping me to have knowledge to feed me and my family in case of necessity. Don
No problem my friend. Thank you for watching!
Thanks for all your wonderful videos. I live in California, where fewer than 300 trapping licenses are issued per year... In a state of almost 39 million people!
+Elizabeth Mendia Yes, they have all but outlawed trapping in California and Colorado. Never hurts to gear up and learn - one day it will come in very handy in such places. Thank you for watching.
FYI, as an old carpenter, I glanced over at my conibear 110s. They looked a tad larger than 4", actually measures 4 1/2" x 4 1/2". Thanks for your educational videos.
I've got the bridger #120 So same size of the 110 4.5x4.5 why would this company call it a 120 when most company's call it a 110 just a funny question
@@briancook8938 I know with the Duke 120 it is the same size as the 110 but with two springs. Now if I could just find them for sale.....
@@michaeldavidson9939 Cabelas I played 7 or 8 dollars for the 120 and it does have to springs
As a former carpenter, turned painter, i can confirm by how nit-picky this guy is...hes definitely a carpenter
@@briancook8938 120`s have 2 springs while 110 has one spring at least the brands i buy.
Nice start to the series good video
Great video. Very informative. Thank You.
Great tutorial about the body grip traps. Thanks for sharing. :-)
No problem. Lot's more to come!
SOO looking forward to it! :-)
I’m sold! Lol great video with tons of information. Thank you
that's dang good - just what i wanted to learn and watching episode 2 now! thx & liked!
Love the video. Can't wait for the next one.
+Logan Bramstedt Thank you very much!
Thumbs up. Very informative. Thank you !
good video. however the numbers of the identification of a trap is the power per square inch that it delivers. The first number has nothing to do with the number of springs on a trap. A 330 doesn't have three springs but it delivers 330 foot pounds per inch of force when it is activated.
Allen, I'm curious where the info on the power of the traps come from. I'm not doubting you by any means, just would like to read that. Makes sense. I knew the 1st # had nothing to do with the # of springs. But never heard that about the force. Meat Trapper makes some great videos. People keep the info coming, this the beauty of RUclips. I use 4 different Conibears. Never seen a 660. But I was impressed to see a guy at the La. trappers convention set 330's by hand. I can't even get close.
another great informative video , thank you and keep them coming meat !
+PhattDawg Trapping No problem buddy - squirrel season opens here in three days - time to be back in the woods for real!
here in Tennessee you can use any Conibear 16"x16" or less on land and water.
Good videos Tim respect you sir
ha ha ha you answered my question when i watched your video. Best Video i have ever seen on this topic...
shall not be infringed brother. those "laws" that claim to outlaw traps are not actual laws at all. they are known as "Unconstitutional Official Acts" and may be safely ignored.
Good demo on the body grip traps!
Thanks!
Very good video. I learned a lot.
Awesome video. Thank you.
Awesome video Meat Trapper.Migwech
+Kirk McCutcheon Thanks buddy - Part 2 will be out this coming weekend.
Great info. Thanks!
In Wisconsin we can use 160s on land. I have Bridget 160s that I use. They are a nice trap for the price. I have a few Dukes in different sizes as well but I’m more of a fan of the Bridgers.
Fun fact# 235 BMI 280 across the hand will wake your ass up! Nice informative video on the body grips.
Sounds like you’ve experienced this.
After using conibears for a long time, seeing those safeties on the belisles upside down spooks me.
A Belisle safety isn't going to move by itself. You have to manually move it in order for it to fire. Duke safeties on the other hand will release with very little effort.
Great video
I just bought a conibear 220 , wanted to get into trapping this year
very very good video thanks
Just FYI, in Virginia anything over 5x5 on dry ground cannot be baited unless in a box with no more than 60 square inch opening with trap recessed at least 12 inches
Do you prefer traps or snares and why?
The only thing that is incorrect is the number of springs, 120s, and 160s have 2 springs even though it has a 1 in it
And the 155
One of my trapping friends calls 660 conibears beaver cleavers
super informative videos. Where are you located in Ala?
I have a situation where skunks are attacking my bee hives. I am not finding any recommendation for what size body grip trap to use for skunks. By state law I can use a Duke 160 size trap, but that 6 inch jaw spread seems like overkill for a small headed animal like skunk. I'm thinking bucket set with honeybun for bait; I just need to get trap size figured out. Any recommendations?
I saw a guy on youtube he is using 160's for blind trail sets he says hes stacking them up.
Alaska allows the 330 on land also.
I been caught in a 330Mag my rookie year..GoodNight!! I escaped but it was a struggle.
I was an idiot and got both hands caught in one while taking some debris out of it... the landowner came by about an hour later and got me out, but it was not a fun experience... smashed my hands up pretty bad
@@BeetleBuns One lucky puppy
belisle coni. best coni on the market.
have you ever had to replace or add a spring on a conibeir trap? if so show how plz
OK thanks
Best one for grund hog?
In Texas the law states that if a body grip trap is set on dry land it has to have a diagonal opening of 10 inches or less, making the 220 the legal size here.
Michael Brigman ya here its 8 inchs
If i am using a conibear for a nuisance groundhog do i need to boil or do any other prep or does that not matter for groundhogs?
No prep needed.
What conibear is the best for rabbit hunting? Thanks!!!
220
I have been interested in the Conibear traps for a long time but what i am seeing now is called a Dukes Trap and i am wondering if the Duke traps are worth the money???? I am not so much a brand loyalist but i don't want to waste my money on junk either, so would love to hear your thoughts???
Joe Watson
Dukes are cheap but they work. If you want something that works *better*, get Belisle or another company with better safeties on the traps.
Where is the best place to buy Belisle traps? What online sites do you guys recommend?

@@Meattrapper Thanks a lot! :)
can you make a dp trapping school series
It could be used to capture an agouti(Dasyprocta aguti) ?
+marcelojc It will catch and kill any animal that puts it's head through it.
The Meat Trapper thanks !
I cannot find a 660 superbear anywhere. I think they stopped making them. I know they sell kits you can make them yourself, but id rather buy one. Do you know of anywhere that sells them?

mb makes a 1216 12” by 16”
What's best for pack rats
tim jones 110.
Whats the difference between a 120 and a 155 or 160
Size ,the 120 is basically a 110 with a second spring, the 155 is bigger ( usually 5×5) and again has 2 springs and the 160 is even bigger with two springs (6×6)
No 330 on dry ground in Texas,
So?
Caught a 6 ft alligator in a 330 beaver set. Suitcase grip
he makes me mad with his prices lol
Thank you nice job thank you for explaining I have a woodchuck I'm wondering if I should get the 2:20 or the 3:30
Dave Justice 220 definitely! Great trap for that. And they are good to eat too!
Have yet to actually trap, but have already bought a number of Bridger body grip traps. Are these better than the Duke traps, or since they're about the same price, are they considered to be as inferior as the Duke line? Oh, and I already learned the hard way about double-spring body grips traps, luckily, only one hand was seriously caught in it. Of course, I was alone at the time...
+Leonard Urban I like the Bridgers and think they have a better fit and finish than the Dukes. Getting pinched is the best way to learn - it's a lesson you never forget! Hope you have a good - and safe - season!
+The Meat Trapper Thanks, Bro!
Thanks for the tip, my friend!
i lost a big wolverine from a barrel set on ugashik lake. critter powered out of a 330 duke coni. i checked all the 330 duke connies i had. besides the faults this trapper showed i discovered the steel rod used in the body of the duke was milder steel and would flex whereas the steel in the body of the belisle would not flex. yeah the dukes are cheaper, not only in price but also construction. personally i would rather pay more(and it's not that much more) initially for the belisles and recoup my costs by not loosing valuable fur than go cheap garbage dukes and loose fur and money.
Agreed. Buy good cry once. Buy cheap and cry forever.
It`s hard to imagine even a wolverine powering out of a 330.
What size conibear is a 7"?
Conibear trap.
220
I TO ORDER CONIBEAR TRAP HOW MUCH PER TRAP PLS LET ME KNOW TQ
Great video would a 280 be good for raccoon?
I ask because I currently have the 280 Duke
@@ericemanuelson5128 For large coons, yes - for smaller I prefer a 220
What do you think about never mind you answered my question funny
I’ve heard stories about trappers getting killed by 330s. I was like how? Then I got some 110s and was like I get it. If it goes off when they’re in the water and it catches their hand. They’re done
A 330 trap of any brand isn't going to kill you if it catches your hand. It will hurt like hell but it's not hard to get out of if you're prepared.
dublelung1 it’s more about the trapper not being able to get themselves out of a 330 they anchored into the water and less about the killing power of the trap. If it’s freezing and you can’t get out of the trap. Eventually you’ll die from exposure by freezing to death. And that’s what really kills the trappers.
If one is going to use the larger conibeairs they should check out the videos on how to get out of one if your by your self in the woods it can keep you from loosing your hand at the least.
@@gunfisher4661 it’s also important to keep an escape rope/tool in a spot that you can easily get to with either hand and to practice before you get into that situation.
Keep poodles at ho.d.

"Even if somethings legal, it's not always a good idea".
my fur buyer here in Iowa bear hugs those 660s right up against his chest and sets them, scary!!! he's got a gorilla grip.
Jerry Jacobsen Don't make him mad!
Great video
